Subjects in mechanical engineering have been offered since Graz University of Technology was founded.

The institutes of economic science take into account the fact that economic aspects are inseparably linked with technology. The Faculty is comprised of 17 institutes that offer more than 400 courses.

Recently, students have been offered the opportunity to receive an accredited bachelor’s degree in Anglo-American countries. Teaching and research benefit from excellently equipped laboratories. Besides well-balanced contract research and co-operation with industry, a number of sponsored research projects and competence centers should be mentioned in particular, especially those in the areas of vehicle technology, production engineering and energy technology, in which the competences of the different institutes of Graz University of Technology are linked to those of industry of international standing in the surrounding area.
